wasn't it George HW Bush who liked to say, "Too little, too late," about Saddam Hussein's response to threats of Gulf War?TULITL TULETA, put cotton wool in your cheeks and say it with like a fake Mafia accent.
My woeful attempt at caption writing is an attempt to highlight the situation where our Metropolitan Police Force is undergoing THREE, not one but three, investigations into accusations of corruption namely Operations Weeting, Elvedon and Tuleta.
Operation Weeting: deals with the N.O.T.W. phone hacking scandal.
Operation Elvedon: deals with payment received by Met from above.
Operation Tuleta: deals with accusations of computer crime in association with the phone hacking scandal.
So, weird... see, I thought we weren't living in Mexico. Maybe it's just me. I thought the boys in blue were supposed to be incorruptible in their 'protecting the public from crime' role. But once again, this is proving not to be true and it is we THE TAX-PAYING PUBLIC who pick up the tab for investigating their corruption via Weeting, Elvedon and Tuleta?
It's like when oil prices go up, notice how THE OIL COMPANIES always pass on the extra cost to YOU THE PEOPLE and never the saving from (say) the dramatic slump in the oil price that happened at the end of 2008. Profits always up when you have corporate license to shaft the punter. And the punter has no other option as all the companies are keeping up with each other in terms of pricing.
What to do?
